 Century Publishing had been after Grant to write his memoirs. Now, he had a relationship with Century Publishing over the years. He had written some small articles about individual battles. So he went to them. He didn't tell them why, but he said, I'm ready to write my memoirs. And they were thrilled. But they presented Grant with a publishing contract that was pretty much a standard contract at the time. It was the same contract they probably would have given any author that they'd worked with at the time.
